Sunday, 21 Adar II 5480 Anno Mundi (31 March 1720 CE)

Primary language

Ladino

Letter from Moshe Yehoshuaʿ Ashkenazi, in Alexandria, to Alpalas y Sahlon, in Cairo (spelled Cairro). Dated: Sunday, 21 Adar II 5480 AM, which is 1720 CE. In Ladino. There is a great deal about business transactions and trouble with the customs office, specifically with a certain accursed Jirjis. […] Moshe seems aggravated: "as there are other things to be doing, I will be brief" (ll. 29–30), and "I have carried out a thousand contrabands but have never had so much trouble as with this one" (in standardized Spanish spelling: mil contra bandos hice nunca me tomé tanto ṣaʿar como esto") (l. 33). See "Alpalas y Sahalon" tag for other documents from the same group.

Letter in Ladino or possibly an epistolary writing exercise. […] Two specific phrases point to the epistolary nature of the fragments: (T-S AS 185.210, l. 2) "kon esto te..." = second-person form of address and, more importantly, the common phrase of endearment "te beza las manos// I kiss your hands" (T-S AS 185.211, l. 5).

26 Kislev 5503 Anno Mundi (23 December 1742 CE)

Primary language

Ladino

Bifolio from a ledger of business accounts. In Ladino and western Arabic numerals. Dated: 26 Kislev [5]503 or [5]505 AM, corresponding to 1742 CE or 1744 CE. […] List of purchases and sales or "copia de compras y vendidas" (l. 2-3r) by Binyamin Abzardil (or Abzaradel). The heading on the verso suggests that this list is a compilation of the entries in Abzardil's own recordkeeping over a period of two years: "conforme todo en sus libritos ke komiensan del 26 Kislev shanat [5]503... [5]505" (l. 3-4r). On the right side of the verso, where the list begins, all values are listed in silver medin coinage (abbreviated "מאי") and this may be the case for all values listed.
